Thank you for your review, we love it when guests take advantage of all our facilities. We love our peace and quiet and its wonderful that we are only 10 mins from the hustle and bustle of the city :-)
We spend an amazing time there. It is quiet and peaceful. The place is beautiful. The bed is very comfortable.

Glad you slept well, awesome to wake up to a beautiful sunrise streaming through your window, then enjoying breakfast on your deck with the amazing view and birdsong
Thank you Beckie for your hospitality. Rooms very well appointed and exceptionally clean. Bed - fabulous sleep. I did not want to get up it was so comfortable. Quality linen provided. Breakfast was beautifully presented, very fresh and yum. Although it was only a one night stay, we would have loved another night. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you Bronny, so disappointed you could only stay one night. Glad you slept well and we enjoy serving a breakfast that is not only healthy but yummy as well. Hope you can return for a longer visit.
Nice quiet place to stay. Pillars in the room got slightly in the way. Lovely balcony with stunning views. All facilities at hand, very convenient. Maggie terribly helpful.
a gorgeous place set amongst the tree in Albany The hosts were welcoming and helpful
the whole construction of the rooms was amazing with the timber poles and environmental considerations given to hotel
the views were wonderful and very relaxing
We really enjoyed our stay and were made to feel very welcome. The food was so good and of the highest quality. We loved sitting on our balcony eating the delicious cheese platter that had been prepared for us.
Everything about our stay is perfect. A highly recommended place to stay in Albany. Pretty sure nothing else will beat the experience staying in HideAway Haven. Big thumbs up to both Becki and Maggie for the top notch service and amazing stay. Thank you.
We had 2 fabulous nights there and would like to have had more but had to come back to reality and Sydney.
A perfect place to stay and easy to travel around to various parts of Albany.
Breakfasts were sensational as was the meal on the first night and after a long day out next day we had a beautiful soup to finish the day along with some great Cab Sav brought back from our day out.
We will definitely be staying here again. The hospitality was above & beyond.

Thank you Monica - we enjoyed having you here with us and are so glad you enjoyed your experience with us. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.
Loved it. Hostesses were extremely nice people. Maggie and Becki provided us with a lovely creamy Italian pasta dish on arrival night and the breakfasts were hearty and delicious. The rooms has a lovely view over the fields. Vista View room was great. Cosy, warm, bed was very comfy. Superb!

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Disappointing location.
Despite booking the best suite it was a room with very restricted view. Food was well below average so for the
the price it was extremely bad value, even though it was pleasant. It was also cold which didn't help as it was hot outside so cannot imagine it in winter or during a cold spell.

Dear Mr Businessman,
As a 5*Hosted Accommodation we proudly display our ECO Friendly Star. Our rooms are heated/cooled usually 1 hour before guests arrival. However with an occasional unexpected early arrival this measure may not happen. The remote thermostat is managed by guests to suit their comfort and preference. Our well above average breakfasts, offer a wide variety of fresh Albany local & regional produce. Breakfasts are attentively cooked according to guests specific requests. Each of our 3 bedrooms are identified and described according to size, amenities and views offered. We will happily move guests to another room if available and a request is communicated. We ask our guests if their needs are being met during their stay as we take pride in assuring they have a wonderful and satisfying experience.

Downstairs from a dwelling house in a suburb, 10 minutes drive from town. Not sure I like the B&B concept (see above) if you do its a very good B&B.

We were amazed with the outstanding hospitality and service by our Hosts.
The breakfasts were amazing, our room a little limited in space, otherwise excellent.

Super lovely and thoughtful hostesses ... breakfast was awesome!
This is a delightful place to stay and represents good value. It is located about 7kms out of town or an $18 taxi fare. The beds are seriously comfortable and the presence of Foxtel and wireless internet (no surcharge) is invaluable. Because of the height of the accommodation and the slope into which it is built, sitting on the balcony (when dry!) is like being in the treetops. The bird life and the sounds of the forest are extremely relaxing. Watch the mosquitos though – there is insect spray in the common room.
The common room is a good place to relax or to work if needs be. The large outdoor spa is superb.
A highlight is breakfast – served from 8am and plenty of really innovative choices. A significant departure from traditional bacon and eggs styles of breakfasts.
There are only 3 rooms so the welcome from the friendly proprietors is genuine and friendly and the service is impeccable.
I was here for work but the next time I can leave my kids with the in laws I will definitely return with my wife for a short break. Highly recommended.

We enjoyed having you here and are glad that since this post, you did return with your wife for a romantic weekend. We love veering away from the traditional bacon and eggs, though that is on offer should guests prefer that option. We love what we do and do it with a passion for excellence and delivering the highest standards of honesty and integrity..
Hide Away Haven is an excellent choice for couples travelling to Albany. It`s silent, beautiful, cozy, confortable and has all the facilities we need. Besides, the breakfast is amazing and the owners are so friendly! And it is close to the city if you are travelling by car.
I strongly recommend!

Thank you for your review. We hope you can return again one day as our breakfast menu has expanded and there are so many new choices. We love cooking with all the fresh produce available in the Albany Region.
Listening to the chirping birds, enjoying a spectacular sunrise and feeling the warmth of the sun on a beautiful morning are some of the many indulgences for our guests.
Mycket trevligt hotell. Värdinnorna är fantastiskt trevliga och ger mycket information som är användbar för turister. Frukosten är enastående. Hotellet ligger lite avsides och man måste ha bil.
